The power consumed by the internet giants’ massive server farms and the mining of the cryptocurrency are growing into a giant environmental headache.
The consequences are astonishing but predictable. According to one estimate, bitcoin mining is now consuming more electricity than 159 countries, including Ireland, Bahrain and the Slovak Republic. The same source reckons that it’s currently taking as much electricity as would be required to power 2.7m US households and that it’s responsible for 0.13% of global electricity consumption. If things go on like this, bitcoin mining will require all of Denmark’s electricity consumption by about 2020.
So... Isn't it the time to stop with it? It's not that other options are non-existent.
Mining - electric cost - maintenance = some $ than is not time to quit

which other coins are using ETHASH algorithm to be mined? I know some but not all, like DBIX, Pegascoin, Ellaisem, Pirl. Anyone know other coin?

If we are using dag file calculator, the end of 4gb cards would be around 2021, but this conditions if ETH still on POW. Many of Crypto coins out there that you can still be mined with your GPUs.
OKi

its not a problem , i have different GPU , 570, 580 with different manufacture, and i am happy with them, only you have to manually add all the frequence if you use claymore for every card.

people are going crazy, they see the profitable of the moment and decide do go all in , that's why the price are so high now, in the second moment that the profitable will be not so high the price will drop but only a little.

everything one day will day, but that day is not today
|
|
|
so i go with 570 8 gb even it cost more 22usd per card
i don't like the 570 model , you always have to use patch on this, but with 580 model you will not need the patch. I have all the models, 570 4GB, 580 4GB and 580 8GB. The best are the 580
